Strategic Re-alignments in Asia: Post-Obama Indian Visit
Posted on 11. Nov, 2010 by Raja Mujtaba in Business and Economy
By Engr. Mansoor A. Malik
The recent address of the American President in the Indian Parliament has heralded the arrival of the Indian-Centric Economic Century in Asia much to the chagrin of its immediate neighbors. The third largest economy of Asia after China and Japan is being 
pumped up by Corporate America to become a World Economic Power. The colonialism of the first half of the 20th century and the neo-colonialism of the later half of the last century is being gradually replaced by Econialism (Economic Colonialism) for half of the humanity living in Asia.
This address of President Obama in Delhi reminds one that was made by our first elected Prime Minister, Mr. Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto in 1974 at the Lahore Islamic Summit. The last Arab-Israeli War of 1973 had just finished and three visionaries, Shah Faisal of Saudi-Arabia, Mr. Anwar Ali the Chief Economic Adviser to the King of Saudi-Arabia and Mr. Bhutto had to-gather coined the New World Economic Order to safe-guard the interests of the resource rich Muslim World. In the presence of all the Islamic luminaries at that time, Mr. Bhutto spoke about the strategic implications of managing one’s own Natural Resources and protecting it for our coming generations. Within a few years, all these three visionaries were assassinated and their message was buried deep in the sand dunes of time till the Turkish Prime Minister, Prof. Erbakan of the Islamic Rephah Party took the gauntlet again after a lapse of 20 years to form the Developing Eight (D-8) Muslim Countries Group to create an Economic Bloc.
Six of these D-8 countries are in Asia (Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, Bangla Desh, Malaysia and Indonesia) and have a combined economy of nearly 2 trillion US Dollars. Some of these countries are also members of ECO (Economic Cooperation Organization) along with the independent Central Asian States. Many of these countries are situated near the littoral states of the Persian Gulf which have formed their own Economic Entity under the GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council). Members of D-8, ECO and GCC constitute a major part of the Muslim World in Asia with extremely rich Natural Resources, some of which is yet to be fully explored. In this Asian Century, these countries are likely to play a dominant role provided they have their own independent leaders who have their hearts and minds beating with that of their people.
The Asian market of 3 billion people with several Developing Economies poses a very competitive economic environment. The business models of big players like India and Japan with the blessings of Corporate America are pitted against the Chinese State business model of Indigenous Development leading to self reliant countries. In the former case the individual companies and their share-holders make progress, whereas in the latter, the State becomes richer and passes on the benefits to its people on a mutual sharing basis. The Capitalists trickle down effect is failing even in USA where the un-employed numbers are steadily growing and requires state stimulus to keep them floating. In India itself, the poverty line is growing along with the ever growing middle-class. Japanese society has sustained so far the economic down turn due to their well established human and social value system.
The resource rich Muslim countries in Asia have to adopt more innovative solutions to benefit their large masses and keep them satisfied rather than let outsiders take away their wealth which lies deeply buried in mother earth. Their experience thus far in inviting out-side powers has not been very fruitful for the satisfaction of their large populations. This dis-contentment may be a de-stabilizing factor in the future. The multi-lateral alignments available under the D-8, ECO and GCC with an International Islamic Financial & Economic System in place could address some of the burning issues of resource exploitation. The 21st century economic pendulum could be shifting from the oil-rich Middle-Eastern Arab countries to the land locked but Energy and Mineral rich Central Asian Muslim countries with their natural outlet on the coastal lines of Pakistan.
The North-South dialogue under the G-20 group of countries which is presently being held in South Korea may be more beneficial to the Developed Countries rather then the developing ones. The G-77 group of Developing Countries is no more effective for safe-guarding the interests of smaller nations. India, which was once a champion of the G-77 as well as the Non-Aligned countries and an effective spokesman of the South-South collaboration has had a somersault or two and has now joined the Elite Group from the Northern Hemisphere. The big void created by India in joining the league of Haves and leaving the Have-nots, both of its own country and that of its region at the mercy of others according to the most respected Indian intellectual Ms. Arundhati Roy could be filled by China in this Asian Century. The D-6 (D-8 minus 2 African countries), GCC and ECO countries along with China could emerge as a new group in Asia looking at the long term interests of these Asian countries with a huge potential in their God gifted Natural Resources.
The 20th century Gun Boat Diplomacy adopted by the British Empire to subdue the Monarchs, Sheikhs and Dictators in the Middle-East in order to lay their hands on their oil rich resources cannot be repeated again in the 21st century due to the ever growing phenomena of Democratization in Asia. This Asian century is not only going to provide economic well being to its large population centers but also freedom and political rights for its people. This would in all likelihood create acute awareness against all external powers bent upon exploiting them and depriving them of the benefits accrued from their own natural resources. The business models of Corporate America operating through their partners in Asia would be competing with the Chinese model of State interventions for progressive growth of the deprived peoples of Asia. The tables could be tilted in favour of China if the Natural Resource Rich Asian Muslim countries can put their weight behind it and have a different experience in this partnership as compared to that of the 20th century exploitation of them by the Western World.

This article is talking about grouping of muslim nations, which is nothing new. The talk of an alliance between the muslim world with China is going on for some time now, and there might already exist some covert understanding of alliance between China and a few muslim nations, in order to fight the western civilization.
This actually validates the theory of " clashes of civilization".
The muslims ganging up with china makes it logical for the Jews, Christians, Hindus and Buddhists to come together. This is precisely what is happening with Japan, S Korea, India, Israel coming together under US leadership.

As mentioned the NEW ALIGNMENT of PRO-ISRAEL US is to include INDIA per demands of ISRAEL and counter CHINA/RUSSIA supportive of MUSLIM WORLD.
Are they now turning this into JEWS/CHRISTIAN/HINDUS against MUSLIM WORLD?

Wonderful great work; God bless you; go ahead, except one thing. You involved two African countries and have not mentioned which? In very suspicious manner!!!!!!! If Egypt is one of the two African countries, hence your wishful plans are entirely disaster even before any attempt to accomplish and certainly involves evil devil intentions. I am Muslim, yes? I'll destroy all your plans and endeavors, in every part and in whole; and certainly even incredibly much worse devastating beyond your imagination; include Egypt and watch it. I am deadly serious.
Egypt (people and government) is even much eviler than thousand Israel. I am Egyptian, I know it very well; you know nothing about it.
(Ask about this name, perhaps I am bluffing)

And while I read, I felt something very odd and strange; it suddenly one of the Pakistani Generals (western treasonous servant) has repented and turned to be an angel flying within the stars protecting the Muslims from the evils. I love it, my eyes hung there in the heavens for the wonder.
There the poison is; you have not mentioned which African Countries.
Nice try, you are smart, I believe still you should try harder.

Listen to me very carefully; Mr. super-smart:
One of the things that I am certain of it one hundred percent is, the Egyptian intelligence had assassinated "Osama Ebn Laden" in 2001; why? They did it on demand from the American government that had no least shade of evidence of Osama committed the attacks in New York; the involvement that the real Osama had denied through the first month after the attacks of September. So the Americans needed a confession rather than evidence to stick it to him. The Egyptian intelligence had assassinated Osama, the CIA had put some fake actor on the Video tapes to confess what they wanted, and the rest is history.
The Pakistani intelligence all along the time is very close than any other in the world to the Muslim strugglers in Afghanistan, still in my mind a running suspicion and investigation that I am not sure about the involvement of the Pakistani intelligence with the Egyptian intelligence in the assassination of "Osama Ebn Ladden", trust me, his blood will not pass without revenge.

Let me think, Let me think.
I can sing, I can sing.
How about this song, I've just improvised on moment!
NOOOOO, my voice is ugly indeed, I am just kidding. But I am good at calculating; I guess. Do you want to see some? Okay, I give you some for free, you welcome. No, no, no, really; you welcome, have a comfort like in your home.
1) You have emphasized heavily on the natural resources within that so-called economic bloc. Entirely you have ignored any least mention of the scientific expertise to exploit these resources internally within this bloc in modernizing operation for the benefit of the so-called economic bloc. This in very itself is hidden imperialistic-western virus code. Your eye is completely focused on the natural resources, not the human entities.
Hence; 2) When you looked at the African Islamic countries, you behaved the same. The richest of them with yet untouched natural very rich resources is Sudan, yes? Am I wrong? Of course, you will not think of Mauritania or Somalia because they are very useless poor countries, no matter how good people they are, it only matters how rich natural resources they have. Who wants to attach himself with the terrorist Somali pirates anyway! Again, this in very itself is hidden imperialistic-western virus code.
3) You can't reach Sudan without the stronger neighbor treasonous-Zionist-Egypt consent that in return conditioned its own inclusion in the deal. Egypt all the time is forcibly imposing control on Sudan and caused too much damage to the Sudanese people. What? Do you want to eat the whole cake alone? Of course you can't.
4) Naturally when we are talking about economics based on natural resources rather than expert working hands, hence we are talking about raw material exportation and foreigner markets (western basically and mainly, concealed in the international market), very huge commissions there. Forget about who call it criminal bribes, they are envious rubbish.
I wish I am wrong, but are my guesses right? Are they the Zionist Egypt and the helpless Sudden? It doesn't need big brains to calculate it.
Have you learnt these wondrous plans in the American manuals of the F16 toys?
Clearly, temporarily, we should suspend this so called D8 block; because I don't see any least good intention from the Pakistani government. At least don't include Pakistan in. Make it D5; for now; while Egypt will never be included in any future Muslim federation, this promise is on my neck.
Go occupy your self with some American manual; they pay their planted spies well from our Muslim's blood-shed. Or, is Britain not used to offer political refuge for the like of you? Count how many Pakistani politician or governmental military is living very well there; as we speak.
Until later I find a solution with these suckers; I always find a solution, there are thousands of solutions.
Let me think, Let me think.
I can sing, I can sing.
Let me think, Let me think.
I can sing, I can sing.

Let me sting, Let me sting.
I can kill, I can kill.
Mr. General F16, sir:
I told you my singing voice is ugly, I know, I know. Listen; I support the Asian D6 in fullness and very loving to include any other Islamic country from anywhere, except Egypt. For now if you can't include Sudan without Egypt, then reject both of them for now. I am aware of the Zionist Egyptian predators are closely focusing their eyes on Sudan and they are able to invade it at will. No for Egypt, this is what I can't accept at any cost; no way. Egypt is my country; none is able to evaluate the ill danger dwelling in Egypt like me.
Primarily I support the D6, yes go ahead, and if you can't include Sudan without Egypt; hence directly reject both of them for now. Include any Islamic country that wanted to share it.
I advise you Mr. F16, "I am the echo of your steps on the plains without mountains, run faster because such echo if caught you it kills you. You survive the echo between the mountains but I don't know of anyone could survive the echo in the open plains. You think you can trick me but you don't know from where comes the echo of the open plains to catch you." I guess this song doesn't sound very bad; I may try to be opera singer on the Italian theaters, "phantom of the opera", I love it, I love it.
Is there any echo in the open plains?????
I support D6 plus whoever wanted to share, make it D500, except Egypt; don't include Egypt. Otherwise I'll destroy it in full devastation, and kill you in person.
Let me sting, Let me sting.
I can kill, I can kill.
Let me sting, Let me sting.
I can kill, I can kill.
Ashraf.

Egypt my country is much, much worse than anything you said, and bad beyond description. Yet on the other hand, the support of Pakistani government to the USA is not any secret. Have you been taught your version of Islam in London or USA, has it been lined by the American drones attacking even inside Pakistan the Pakistani people themselves. Your Version of Islam is so strange. Was your version of Islam the main cause for the deep humiliating poverty within the Pakistani people! If that so, I believe that any other version of Islam certainly is better and deserves a try, because there is no worse than this. Denial of the clear facts doesn't help anything, except exacerbating the bad fact to the worse than what it already is.
It seems that you haven't read and concentrate on my line carefully, I am against Egypt completely because there is not least tiniest hope of any sort with Egypt, I press hard on Pakistan because there is hope.
Pakistani people, themselves, in the street or the tribes are very good people and strong yet betrayed, no doubt of that, what I disrespect is the politicians not the people. Full cooperation between the Pakistani government with London and Washington for long time until now had exceeded any disgrace and humiliation to any Islamic version, mine or yours.
Don't you see; how many of the Pakistani politicians live in London, learning there their Islamic version. There is a distinct line between the Pakistani government which is legacy of the British colonialism and the Pakistani people who are Muslims, as same as many other Islamic countries, that is the point.
Thank you, for long time I haven't discussion fight; your remind me of the old days, lol. It could be one of these days, yet I like and admire your warmness, live heart should be warm, keep it on.

When it comes to talk about sins; that doesn't seem straight indeed. Talking with Politicians about sins? I am rolling on ground laughing. Politics of that type is not about sins, ha ha ha ha, it is about Satan himself; I can't stop laughing,
Ahem, sorry, occasionally I am out of Pig-Head, please; forgive my sin.
Sorry, I can't stop laughing, Pakistani politics without sins! haaa ha ha., sins! hilarious, haaa, ha, ha, ha. You killed me.

Takings in terms of socio-politics, in my personal mind and experience, when I focus my eye on some country; I put special attention on and estimation about the "relation between the government element and its own people element". I should have definitive conclusion and picture about that specific relationship.
The results are sometimes odd and uneven and other times it is harmonious. You pushed here the comparison between Egypt and Pakistan, okay, okay, man.
1) In Egypt, no matter the relation between the Egyptian people and government is aggressively damaged or smoothly flowing, in fact the deep inspection and analysis tells with full certainty that the Egyptian people and the Egyptian government are one completely harmonious thing. No matter how the relation goes, under the skin it is one body. Hence why is the relation ever tends to be divisive and reach frequently the climax of full aggression and confrontation? It is simple; the Egyptian people are ethically full-self-destructive, no matter of outside influence by means of the treasonous hands or without, the Egyptian people will ever produce the government type that destroys and tortures their selves. The Egyptian people and government are of the same self-destructive type, one cancerous body, and it will ever be self-destructive, that is.
2) In Pakistan as very contrary example to Egypt, the Pakistani people, basically good, no human is perfect ideal yes of course, but basically good tribal structure. In general, the Pakistani individual Character is nice and delicate character, inclined to generosity, decency, inclined to good ethics, even if in some areas the society structure considerably lost its tribal traits and became very urban, yet the tribal legacy has a very kind tint on the general outcome of the ordinary Pakistani Character. The division between the Pakistani people and their government, is real and is not because of self-destructive traits like Egypt, no, it is because of self-healing cause. The Pakistani government is really imposed and implanted by outside influence through the treasonous hands. And there lies the great hope in Pakistan and that what doesn't exist in Egypt.
That is, what is called, "socio-politics", I don't cheat anyone, through rising of that D6 cooperation, I take seriously the Socio-political vital/fatal factor in continuous focus and relentless treatment for the process to be successful and above all positive, that is the real tough work and the hardest painful of all works.
Why does the west/USA not give a least damn concern about Egypt, for example? Why do they concentrate their military and political aggressive activity in the area of Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iraq while ignore temporarily other areas like Egypt? Is it for the economical bullshit? You understand nothing if you believed so. Economics comes as secondary consequence to the Socio-politics; economics is important yes on the short run, on long run it is the Socio-politics is what counts. In the west they deeply beyond your imagination and scientific knowledge are deeply concerned with the Socio-politics, they calculate and I calculate too, and God will say his word.
All the ordinary public societies within the mentioned D6 are very promising positive, way or another. The politics environment is different story, in some areas is extremely promising positive, fully trustable and dependable, and honorable, in other places is starting mild promising and in other places is very poorly promising anything honest or serious and in best plagued with the incompetence and inefficiency;;;; crying dependant babies when they start to discover their complete failure, yet as dependant babies unfortunately they inclined to spoiling and baseless ill pompousness. Come down my baby, relax; don't think papa is stupid.
What do you think about the "baseless ill pompousness" taking in the consideration that past uninterrupted "intentional" governorship failure incited by London and Washington? Is it not a big sin? Are you talking about sins? Sorry, still I can't stop laughing, Haaaaa, ha, ha, ho, ho, unbelievable.
